| THEA 209 - BRITISH THEATER |
|
What makes the United Kingdom's theatrical tradition unique and distinct from America's or Continental Europe's? This course explores the remarkable richness and diversity of the British theatre. Beginning with an in-depth study of Shakespeare, his plays, life and times, and ending with an experience of contemporary "fringe" performance at The Edinburgh Festival in Scotland, we will explore the major playwrights and periods in the British theatre through reading plays, attending performances, touring London, Stratford, and Edinburgh and visiting both the Theatre and British Museums. In addition to the scheduled performances students are encouraged to see other productions of their own choosing.
